Tanushree Dutta in Bigg Boss?

She says, It's surreal to actually see things shaken up. And not just support on paper and lip service.

There are loud whispers afloat in the entertainment industry that Tanushree Dutta, the forerunner of the #MeToo movement in India, will be entering the Bigg Boss house.

Tanushree debunks the rumour saying, “Are you serious? Bigg Boss? Come on now. Surely my aspirations are different now, when I seem to have triggered off a long-overdue movement against harassment in the workplace.”

When asked how it feels to be called the pioneer of the #MeToo movement in India. She says, “It’s surreal to actually see things shaken up. And not just support on paper and lip service. People coming forward with passion and purpose, and knocking out outdated opinions. I wouldn’t have imagined it in my wildest dreams that this could happen when I took that flight from New Jersey to Mumbai to spend time in my country.”

How does she react to the opinion that she is doing this for publicity? “Oh really? Did I orchestrate this amazing movement in our country? Wow! Let the nasty tongues wag. I am happy to be a part of something so staggeringly revolutionary.”

Supporters of Nana Patekar say he does an enormous amount of charitable work. Tanushree laughs off these claims as mere publicity.
